Description of problem: with a new kernel 2.4.20 source tree, doing a "make xconfig" and exiting generated the error message: ERROR - Attempting to write value for unconfigured variable \ (CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_PCMCIA). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.20-2.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. make xconfig, then exit 2. 3. Actual results: error message above Expected results: no error message Additional info:
Just FYI, this option corresponds to "Parallel port support", "Support for PCMCIA management for PC-style ports". currently, since i've already done a "make mrproper" and a build, that config option shows up *twice* in that menu, the first one greyed out. definitely not a good sign. rday
